Where is the location of the crankshaft position sensor on a 93 500sl.

I had my CLK55 for about 6m now, and I think it's a brilliant car, but I really miss having a convertible and have always fancied a R129. Would anyone be interested in a trade? Either straight swap or part ex. My spec is: 2001 Y W208 CLK55 97k miles I think it's got every extra including...

Hi All, Following on from my earlier post regarding the throttle valve actuator needing to be replaced I finally sourced one (£365!) and had the garage fit it. I've just been informed it doesn't work. Irritating to say the least. The real problem I'm having is that I need the car gone...

Hi, I've just serviced my 500SL and when I checked the oil resevoir level of my Adaptive Damping system (the resevoir underneath the spare wheel) I saw that it is a good way below minimum. Can anyone tell me what oil is used to top it up? many thanks, Tal

Hi, Does anyone know where I can purchase a new walnut centre consul or have the existing one refurbished? Thanks, Tal

I had the accelerator cable replaced a few weeks ago after it had stretched, and the pedal hasn't felt the same since - it now feels very stiff.. When it was first changed it was fine (light & very responsive), but then after 2 miles of driving it would suddenly go stiff, like it had...

Hi all, The power soft-top on my SL ('93 500SL) is not powering :mad: The hard top is currently off of the car and the roof is open. I wish to close it and it won't! There are motors running if I push the button forward but nothing if I pull it backward. The red light within the button...

Whoops! Couldn't find this forum initially, so you will prob find a similar post from me elsewhere, introducing myself and my newly acquired 500SL to the world! "I have just purchased a '93 500SL. It has some small jobs to do which I hope I can gather help and advice from the forum. I am...

Hi to all. I have just purchased a '93 500SL. It has some small jobs to do which I hope I can gather help and advice from the forum. I am delighted with the car in general, and this model has always been at the top of my 'want' list! I remember clearly when they were launched, dreaming of...

Dont know if it will make financial sense to all, as these can cost big money to put right, but its a facelift, a 500, with only 3 previous owners.... For someone with the skills and means (donor early car, cheap SLC perhaps?) this could be a worthwhile project..... Dont find many facelifted...

Hello, My R107 has recently developed a strange electrical fault, when I turn the sidelights on the N/S headlamp washer jet is permanantly stuck on.....which made for a frothy drive home the other night!! Any advice/easy remedy appreciated? Stuck relay perhaps? Where are they located? Thanks

Hello all, My 1984 500SL has about 2 inches of play in the throttle pedal. Does anybody know if this is an easy adjustment/fix? Thanks:)

Hi Im looking for an Owners manual for a 500SL and the supplementary booklets. Thanks

Hello Just went outside the house and noticed that my right indicators stays on with constant light. When I took the fuse off they're gone but when fuse is back the lights turn on again. When I got inside the car and turned the signal switch to the left,the left indicators are working as they...

I'm after the part number of the indicator stalk for my '85 R107 SL (UK) Or indeed the part itself :)

Hi All Long time listener, first time caller. Am very keen to get my hands on the above - let me know if anyone knows of one going for sale! Will pay a good price for a low mileage, well looked after, straight car. Michael

Which number fuse relates to the right window that does not go down. Thanks

Anyone out there got a spare set of rims in good condition ? Mexican hat or he flat alloys ? I have a set of Lorinser alloys which are heavily pitted and it seems like a good tome to restore to the original rims. Shaun +33 68832708
